Last year I bought family Xmas PJs from Chelsea Peers, and DH and DS had pockets and DD and I did not, I complained bitterly and sent this poem:

Dangerous Coats by Sharon Owens:Someone clever once said

Women were not allowed pockets

In case they carried leaflets

To spread sedition

Which means unrest

To you and me

A grandiose word

For common sense

Fairness

Kindness

Equality

So ladies, start sewing

Dangerous coats

Made of pockets & sedition

they replied that they were very sorry and would effect change. I got them again this year and POCKETS ALL ROUND!!!! Yeeeahhhhhh! Feminist fist pump! 😂😂😂

These are the ones, I got them 50% off on Black Friday, so £19. They are incredibly soft and lovely. Keep an eye on discounts as they do loads all the time :) The large mens even fit 6 foot 5 DH and they are nice and loose of waistband - ideal for Xmas feasting! 😂

Do the dog's ones have pockets though?

No, although I am sure she would love a pocket for snacks

Excellent work, especially the use of the poem.

I own a few pairs of Chelsea Peers pyjamas for when I’m in hospital & need button-front ones to accommodate my portacath; but have always preferred the couple of pairs of Cath Kidston ones I own because they have pockets.

It’s the simple things in life…

I am trying to link to the visible women by Caroline criado Perez podcast about pockets!

You kiss ass. Well done. I really love your poem.
